Twists

Tribe Selection: After the marooning, the 20 castaways arrive at a beach where they must spend the first night. They find a message saying that the next day, only 18 of them will form the tribes: they must choose two of them that will stay on the beach. On Day 2, the 18 castaways who left the beach are divided into two tribes by a Schoolyard Pick led by the youngest man (Marius) and the youngest woman (Wendy).

Island of the Necklaces: This is an island away from the two tribe camps, where several Immunity Necklaces (equivalent of Hidden Immunity Idols) are hidden. In the first episode, the two castaways who stayed on the first beach are taken to this island. They stay there until Day 4, before the second Reward Challenge, where they join the tribes. Immediately after, each tribe must send a castaway from the opposite tribe to the Island of the Necklaces. These castaways will not take part in the next two challenges, and will skip Tribal Council. This is repeated in every episode until the switch. After the merge, at the Day 21 Reward Challenge, the winner is given the opportunity to exile himself to the Island of the Necklaces for one day, giving away the reward to the other castaways who reached the final stage of the challenge. Also, at the final six Reward Challenge, the winner has the choice between enjoying a food reward or spending one day on the Island of the Necklaces, giving the reward to the castaway of their choice.

Tribe Switch: A message was hidden on the Island of the Necklaces, giving "a great power" to its founder. When the exiled return from the island, all castaways are told that a tribe shuffle will occur with a new Schoolyard Pick. The message founder becomes the leader of their former tribe, and must also choose the leader of the opposite tribe.

Ambassadors: At the merge, each tribe send an ambassador to a meeting. Their purpose is to directly eliminate a castaway from the game, and if the two ambassadors do not agree on a name, one of the two is eliminated by a rock draw. This season, like in Johor, the ambassadors are chosen by the opposite tribe, without any emissaries being sent.

Pairs: On Day 24, the ten people remaining are divided into five pairs by a rock drawing. Until the next Tribal Council, the fate of each contestant is linked to their partner: the challenges are competed by pairs, and the person voted out at Tribal Council causes their partner's demise.

Camp Move: On Day 31, while the merged tribe is living on the Karwaï beach, they are told to move to the former Aopoh camp for the rest of the game.

Joker: Due to Charlie quitting before the first Tribal Council, Laureen joined the game on Day 3.

^1Charlie elected to quit the game. No vote occurred for her removal and Laureen was added into the game to replace her.^2Cassandre and Steve stayed at the marooning beach, and spent the first days of the game on the Island of the Necklaces.^3Laureen was introduced to Karwaï during the first Tribal Council. Because she did not spend the first days with the tribe, she was immune and could not cast a vote.^4Marius elected to quit the game. No vote occurred for his removal.^5This castaway was sent to the Island of the Necklaces before the Reward Challenge, thus did not attend their tribe's Tribal Council.^6Tribal Council resulted in a tie. Per the rules, a second vote was held where the castaways could only vote for those involved in the tie, while Carole's black vote did not count anymore.^7At the ambassadors meeting, Cassandre and Romain did not agree on a castaway to eliminate, therefore both of them drew rocks. Cassandre lost the draw and was eliminated from the game.^8Karima played her Immunity Necklace, therefore the vote cast against her was negated.^9Romain's black vote did not count, as Karima won the Immunity Challenge.^10Pascal played his Immunity Necklace, therefore the vote cast against him was negated.^11Steve was Laureen's partner during the pairs twist, therefore he was eliminated with her at Tribal Council.^12Nicolas's black vote did not count, as Wendy won the Immunity Challenge.

Trivia

Excluding seasons with returning players, this is the first season since Les Aventuriers de Koh-Lanta where nobody returned into the game after being voted out.
